Hello
Life can feel heavy in ways that aren’t always visible to others.
On the outside, you may be managing everything — work, relationships, responsibilities — while underneath feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck in patterns that aren’t working anymore.
You might be navigating burnout, anxiety, low mood, relationship strain, or the impact of past experiences that continue to show up in your day-to-day life.
Therapy doesn’t have to feel overwhelming or uncertain. It can be a steady, grounded space where you begin to understand what’s happening, and start making meaningful change.
My Story
The name Mind Over Mountains Counselling reflects how I understand therapy and change.
Life can feel like difficult terrain, healing is not about forcing your way to the top.
It’s about slowing the climb, understanding the landscape, and building steadiness along the way.
I work with people who appear capable and responsible on the outside, but feel exhausted or overwhelmed underneath. Many of my clients are navigating burnout, chronic stress, anxiety, low mood, trauma, or the quiet weight of carrying too much for too long.
How I Work
In our work together, we move at a pace that allows for both insight and practical change.
We explore patterns that developed for a reason — often as ways of coping — and build tools that support:
-
emotional regulation
-
boundaries
-
communication
-
self-trust
Therapy with me is collaborative, grounded, and direct, with space for honesty and reflection.
My goal is not just understanding, but meaningful shifts in how you feel and live.
My Story
My understanding of resilience and balance is shaped by my upbringing in a remote northern BC community.
I grew up in a family of outfitters, spending months each year living in the bush, riding horses, and learning the rhythms of land and animals.
From an early age, I learned that strength is not loud or rushed.
It is steady, patient, and rooted in relationship.
Healing often happens in quiet spaces, with time and presence — and those early experiences continue to influence how I practice today.
Culturally Responsive Care
Practicing in British Columbia, I provide culturally responsive care for Indigenous clients.
I approach this work with respect, cultural humility, and awareness of how intergenerational trauma, history, and systemic stressors continue to impact individuals and families.
Land, identity, and community matter in healing — and these realities are honoured in our work together.
Credentials
I hold a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology and am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors (#23058).
My work is grounded in evidence-informed, trauma-aware approaches that integrate practical skill-building with deeper pattern exploration.
Work With Me
I offer virtual counselling across British Columbia.
Online sessions provide flexibility and privacy while maintaining the depth and connection essential to therapy.
Mountains teach us that strength is steady.
Weather changes. Paths shift. Progress is rarely linear.
You don’t have to navigate the terrain alone.
If you’re ready for clarity, steadiness, and sustainable change, I invite you to book a free 15-minute consultation.
